It's coming along

So awhile ago I wrote about the greenhouse. We are making some progress. I just want the project to be done, but this needs to happen before that, which is waiting for this... Not well planned out - but that makes sense based on the fact that no one actually did any planning!
But, it will get done. The neat part - my husband and I have been spending time together, outside, working on the same project - cool!
See for yourself...

This is the "floor" but still at the neigbor's

The frame is almost done...

Feeling Strange...

So some things have been happening lately - not specifically in my life, but if the life of someone close. It affects me. I am feeling, well as the title suggests, strange... My body feels weird, my mind is fuzzy...
I have to go to Grand Rapids, AGAIN, tomorrow for 2 days, don't suppose there is any way out of it. I guess I could easily limit my participation, seeing as my clarity, creativity and all around thought processing skills are completely inept right now.
Could I spend the entire 5.5 (or so) hour drive listening to music on my headphones and not have to socialize... Hmm...

Whoosh!

I was pretty groggy this morning, late to bed last night, hit snooze twice (have time only to hit it once), and so I was rushing around a little. I took the quickest shower that I remember taking for years (its okay, I really am clean). I was still in a hurry, because timing it tight in the morning, and now my lateness will also affect Jeff. I toweled off while exiting the bathroom, like I said, in a hurry; normally I lollygag awhile...
I open the bathroom door to hear and see something, WHOOSH!
I almost freaked right out, and yelled “Oh Crap!” Jeff is almost wide awake now… So he asks, what is wrong? (A little crabby, it’s first thing in the morning and the crazy lady is yelling…) So, what was the whoosh? The best ‘person’ to ask would be our fun loving little angel of a cat, Buddy… What did Buddy do? She brought a friend into the house… JOY!
This is what went whoosh:
Well, not EXACTLY this bird, but one very much like it…
Birds in the house were a pretty common thing when we lived in the city (again, ask Buddy) so we got pretty good at catching them. This little guy was flying all over Jeff’s office, finally we cornered him and Jeff got him in a towel. He is now free!

Get Rich Quick??


So lately I have been trying to come up with some 'get rich quick' schemes. Well that's really not accurate, its more of a 'get enough to get by comfortably in a reasonable amount of time' scheme - essentially, make more money and hopefully while doing something you enjoy.

But what happens when you enjoy your work and maybe the money just doesn't seem to be enough? Now I am not talking about being greedy and taking more than my fair share, that's just all I want - my fair share.

But this isn't really about me, because I am starting to feel like I can actually have both, and for ONCE without having to quit my job! On the other hand, I will say again, this isn't really about me, more my husband. So, my question is - what do I do to help him?

Time Hog...

So, I just spent the last half hour or more customizing my blog, including a new header that now seems kind of cheesy... (What do you think?)
I have been wanting to keep up with the blogging, but I am so verbose, hard to scale that down...
